UTTLESFORD District Council is advising residents of some changes it has made to its weekend garden waste skip service

The council provides skips at villages across the district for residents who need to dispose of garden waste but don’t live close to a household waste recycling centre.

Although the skips are deposited and collected by the council, they are the responsibility of individual parish councils.

For further details contact your local parish council direct.

Collection times – and in some cases days – have been changed in the following parishes:

• Newport (Frambury Lane Allotments/Newport Station Car Park) – weekly, 10am to 11am Sunday

• Manuden (Carters Hill) – weekly, 11.15am to 12.15pm on Sunday
